The Politics of Age and Disability in Contemporary Spanish Film: Plus Ultra Pluralism (Routledge Advances in Film Studies) Matthew J. Marr

The Politics of Age and Disability in Contemporary Spanish Film examines the onscreen construction of adolescent, elderly, and disabled subjects in Spanish cinema from 1992 to the present. Applying a dual lens of film analysis and theory drawn from the allied fields of youth, age, and disability studies, this study is set both within and against a conversation on cultural diversitya??with respect to gender, sexual, and ethnic identitya??which has driven not only much of the past decadea??s most visible and fruitful scholarship on representation in Spanish film, but also the broader parameters of discourse on post-Transition Spain in the humanities. Presenting an engaging, and heretofore under-explored, interdisciplinary approach to images of multiculturalism in what has emerged as one of recent Spaina??s most vibrant areas of cultural production, this book brings a fresh, while still complementary, critical sensibility to the field of contemporary Peninsular film studies through its detailed discussion of six contemporary films (by Salvador GarcA­a Ruiz, Achero MaA±as, Santiago Aguilar & Luis Guridi, Marcos Carnevale, Alejandro AmenA?bar, and Pedro AlmodA?var) and supporting reference to the production of other prominent and emerging filmmakers.
